That arm may look like its gonna get an infection ouch

[alanheath3]

I was surprised to hear here that General Shazli was a suspect in the murder.

[dabsy1]

it was October, not November 81 !

@Rarogne1926 Sarcasm not big in your part of the world, fella?

[dsriggs]

@Rarogne1926 Because all MOOSLINS are evil terrorists, of course! :P

[vincevega0]

Nothing like showing a bloodied human mangled arm 02:40 and then advertising oil of olay 06:34.

@Rarogne1926 My concern might be a "what happens if the Muslim Brotherhood takes control". Basically, I'm in the category of "hoping the extremists don't come to power there".

[zuzasaki]

This is not 1981. Egypt has satellite TV and internet to inform the people whom are now much more educated then 30 years ago.

I believe FREE elections will give power to a moderate party, or at least i hope. Egyptians know that an extremist muslem gorvnment will never bring them better life conditions.

@zuzasaki

I dont know, the sharia law sound like a real party...

[ChristianTVArchive]

Looks like Mubarak might be on his way out. Just hoping the Muslim Brotherhood doesn't fill the power vaccum.

This makes for interesting viewing in light of the fact it was the LAST time Egypt had another leader, one who died for trying make peace. I don't know if they would show the protocol chief's mangled arm in today's broadcasts. Either it would be totally censored or played a million times over.

Anwar Sadat may God bless you. Sadat was a wise, brave, patriot. He had a vision far beyond other Arab leaders!

Peace be with your spirit Anwar Sadat.

Too bad today's newscasts do not include the ongoing sound of the typewriters in the background.

[ArgoLupus]

@vtwzy As a former full-time newspaperman, I know what you're talking about. It's too bad they ceased to make the PC computed keyboards which have a great snap, crackle and pop.

[choicewords]

@abeshaking370 ... you're a very sick, disturbed person, not to mention a complete idiot.

I guess he should've worn a bullet proof vest.

[ChristianTVArchive]

Exactly what was the deal with the (lack of) security surrounding Sadat?

You'd think there would be more protection; particularly considering the then-recent assassination attempts on Pope John Paul II and President Reagan.

[zulfiqar501]

@garybsg no disrespect intinded but u should do more research about the man he was a lap dog he would befriend anyone that would help him to keep power and he was like any other dictator he tortured and killed thousands of his apponets and basicly stole his countries resources and sold them dirt cheap for his own financial gain in my opnion just because a man spouts peace rhetoric doesnt mean thats what he truely wants

[garybsg]

@zulfiqar501 true and he may or may not have been a fiend but those men murdered him for for his peace efforts. Besides thats not how you deal with a selfish politician, the US would have murder almost all of its politicians by that standard.

[lowfuellevel]

f**k those Libyans celebrating in the streets, he was a man of peace.

[67nairb]

What exact date in October was Sadat assassinated?

[gulshabbo]

@67nairb October 6, 1981.

[67nairb]

I remember this news broadcast.

[yosofff]

Do you believe that state of emergency is held till now !

Actually it isn't 1 year , it's 28 years!!

[gulshabbo]

Peter Jennings was hot back then.
